Burton's Being Rad

We know we know, we skipped a couple of days. We are back to our car and headed north. But the adventure is not even ending.

More mistakes and steep steep ascents

So many kind people helping out in all these unexpected ways. Ending a tough day with full bellies and a super comfortable spot to camp .

An epic tail of Antonio who just may have saved us from certain death.

Oops lots of delays

En route to the newest biking destination for the Burtons. Stepping up the adventure levels by going international. Hear about our drive, as well as Mary's passport foibles.

After over 200 miles of Pacific coast fun we are ready to head back home to Idaho just in time to get the kids back to school.

We took a ferry from Port Townsend to Whidbey Island and found more grueling hills than you could shake a stick at.

A day full of help from strangers, one of the best parts of being a vulnerable bike tourist.

Sunday rest day.... But a mechanical predicament.... How will the Burtons continue being rad?

Hill went from steep to ah heck no. More swimming holes and an interesting place to camp. Just outside of Port Angeles.

We found what critics are calling "arguably the world's best swim hole" and then ate the " most overpriced lousy burger" but you will have to listen to learn about the one thing that made the whole day " magical".

First day of our 2022 bike tour. Pushing off on our bikes from Beaver, Washington and camped at Crescent lake.

More biking followed by biking then we rode bikes

Recoup day in a hotel. 94 degrees and sweaty. Caught our first turtle.

What happens when you pull some cool aired folks out of the Idaho mountains and place them in a hot muggy place.... Then give them bikes

We took it easy today, hanging out around camp and played by a lake and we're joined by some good friends. Chiiiiiiill.

Huge day for us milage wise. The kids beat their personal records, which ended in a late night for us.

The kids are crushing it in Missouri's Katy trail. We are 36 miles into our 240 mile ride. This episode has it all, milkshakes, frogs and even a praying mantis.

We drove to our backyard national park, and pedaled on to jenny lake to camp for the night. Testing new setups and gear, to prepare for our upcoming ride.

In Grand teton national park, we canoed across String lake and portaged over to Leigh lake where we spent two nights camping with some friends and listening to General Conference.

The episode no one saw coming, complete with a surprise ending.

Hear the story about an 8 mile hill, what happens at the end had me in chills

We cheated, find out how we got way further down the route than planned in only one day!

Lots of smoke and hills...what happens next has bike tourists everywhere shouting foul!

We finished the trail and hit the real life road...

Another day on the trail, and 31 miles more down. Hear our tent banter at the end of another big day.

Bike touring with three kids on the trail of Coeur d'Alenes.

Just a little chat with the kiddos, around a flameless camp fire about the days adventures.
